What About This? (Special Birthday Encore)

I promised, as part of her birthday celebrations, a new post for the first of my styling guinea pigs. The first time round, she gave me free rein when it came to price range. And when let loose, I pick things like Wolford tights and Jimmy Choo booties. So for this birthday edition, she asked that I try to at least be reasonable. So I gave myself a ceiling. No single item over $100. Thankfully, with everything on sale everywhere from Old Navy to Barneys, this didn't prove as difficult as it might have been in previous years.

In fact, I found so many things that I think organizing them into outfits could cause my brain to implode. But then, how to organize them? Day/Night? Work/Play? By Store?

Instead we're going by type of piece, much like this post that I wrote for myself.

So that last one broke the rules. But only by six bucks.

It was a necessary evil.

HAPPY (almost) BIRTHDAY KELLY!
